Gravel: Cedar Hill Drainage And Durability • Fast Local Gravel Delivery And Scheduling
Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas. Made from crushed and weathered granite down to a mix of fine gravel and sand—best for patios, paths, driveways, and landscape projects. Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
Road Base
(Class 5 | ABC | Crusher Run) A mixture of crushed limestone or granite, gravel, and sand, ranging from 1 ½” in size down to fines (small particles). Commonly used for constructing roads, driveway bases, parking lots, and other paved and unpaved surfaces. Intended to be compacted, hence the inclusion of fines within the material to provide support and be resistant to erosion and shifting.

Why Cedar Hill Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Cedar Hill, with a city population of 46,370 and a metro area population of 2.5+ million, is seeing steady residential and infrastructure demand as it grows at a rate of 1.82% annually. Located in West Texas with 228/year sunny days, an annual rainfall of 34.25 inches, and USDA hardiness zone 8b, the area encourages year-round outdoor projects and steady construction activity. That combination of growth, sun, and seasonal rain drives homeowner demand for dependable aggregates: driveways that resist rutting, drainage solutions that move stormwater away from foundations, and low-maintenance landscape surfacing that stands up to both heat and occasional heavy downpours. Homeowners choose quality gravel to improve water flow, limit erosion, and provide a stable base for pavers, patios, and vehicle use, especially where local geology affects color and texture.Popular Projects in Cedar Hill This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Cedar Hill gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Cedar Hill.
Delivered gravel prices in Cedar Hill vary by type but expect approximate ranges: crusher run/crushed limestone $15-35 per ton ($21-49 per cubic yard), 3/4" crushed stone $20-40 per ton ($28-56 per cubic yard), pea gravel $25-50 per ton ($35-70 per cubic yard), and river rock $40-85 per ton ($56-119 per cubic yard). These are estimates based on local West Texas sourcing and include typical delivery fees; request a quote for an exact delivered price to your zip code.
Cedar Hill gets material from multiple local quarries and suppliers in the Dallas/Fort Worth and West Texas region; Hello Gravel connects you with these local producers and contracted dump truck haulers. Typical delivery minimums in the area run 3-10 tons; Hello Gravel's platform requires a 3-ton minimum and uses tri-axle dump trucks for delivery.
For Cedar Hill's clay-prone soils and periodic heavy rain, crushed limestone or crushed stone (crusher run for base, 3/4" crushed stone or 3/8" for top) perform best because they compact and lock together. Pea gravel or river rock can look nice but tend to migrate and need containment and a thicker base to stay stable under traffic.
A 20x24 foot driveway at a 4" depth needs roughly 6 cubic yards (about 8-9 tons). If you want a more durable build with a 6" depth, budget about 9 cubic yards (about 12-13 tons). Use 1.3-1.5 tons per cubic yard as a rule of thumb and round up for compaction and spreading losses.
Common guidance: a 100 sq ft walkway at 2" depth needs about 0.8 cubic yards (~1.1 tons), a 200 sq ft patio at 3" depth needs roughly 2.2 cubic yards (~3 tons), and mulch-style groundcover areas are similar to a 2-3" spread. Always measure the area and depth, then multiply area (sq ft) by depth (ft) and divide by 27 to get cubic yards, then convert to tons.
Excavate and remove soft topsoil, then grade and compact the subgrade. Install a geotextile fabric to limit mixing, add 4-6" of compactable base material like crusher run and compact it in lifts, then put 2-3" of the finish gravel and compact or rake as needed; include edging and proper drainage to keep material contained and reduce washout.
Cedar Hill's hot summers and occasional heavy rains can cause fines to wash out and create ruts after storms, while infrequent freezes may cause some settling. Expect to regrade after major rains, maintain drainage swales, and add fresh gravel or fines periodically to restore levels and compaction.
Rules vary by neighborhood and HOA—some HOAs restrict front-yard gravel or require specific colors, edging, or gravel size for curb appeal and drainage. Check your HOA covenants and contact the City of Cedar Hill planning or code office before installing, since local covenants and some municipal codes can affect front-yard treatments and stormwater requirements.
Initial cost is typically lowest for gravel (roughly $1-3 per sq ft installed), mid for asphalt ($3-7 per sq ft), and highest for concrete ($5-12 per sq ft). Gravel has low upfront cost but higher ongoing maintenance (periodic grading and replenishing), while asphalt and concrete require less frequent topping or repairs but cost more to install; consider driveway use, drainage needs, and long-term maintenance when choosing.
Expect light grading after heavy rains and at least annual maintenance; higher-traffic driveways may need regrading twice a year. Plan to add a fresh layer every 2-5 years; for a 20x24 driveway that's often 1-4 tons per refresh, with material and delivery costs varying by type—get local quotes but budget a few hundred dollars every few years for material and occasional contractor grading.
Washed gravel has fines and dust removed so it drains better and looks cleaner, while unwashed mix (like crusher run) contains fines that help materials lock together and compact. Washed gravel typically costs 10-30% more and may have different delivery minimums; washed material may also shift more unless you use a compactable base, so choose based on whether drainage/appearance or stability is the priority.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

We cannot get out of the truck and manually spread it. However, depending on the location, safety, and comfortability of the driver – we may be able to tailgate spread your material. This involves pulling the truck forward as material is being dumped to make it easier for you to distribute material after delivery.
The minimum order size is 3 tons.
